Remove the seperate skill icons from Kurzick and Luxon skills.

Title says it all, remove, or at least edit one set of skills, I know the luxons and kurzicks are warring factions, but the luxon skills are so low grade compared too the kurzicks, and, most of the other skills in gw.

My proposition is have them use a universal icon, or at least edit the luxon (to be as good as kurzick) or the kurzick (too be as bad as luxon)



Too show but 3, where the luxon skill looks grainy and an after-thought.

Ye well true, but really does it matter so much? I mean, it's the same skill with different icons, why bother?

Meh, im 8 rank thru luxon and only 57k kurzicks.

I refused too be a kurzick because of their failing Mobbing tactics.

And yet anet gives them the best skill icons, a high-def glossy icon, whilst the luxons get the drab and grainy one.

Meaning i have to grind my monk too DT just too get a non-sucky skill icon.

lmfao. a waste of resources?

Jesus if anet gave me the code for them, I could probably do it.

And theres bigger waste of resources than giving both sets of players a chance too have a cool looking skill bar, rather than a grainy, low-quality one...

If Anet would want to change the icons they could do it in a couple of seconds. Still I don't see why they would. Lame to complain about something like this.

Pure opinion.

Do you have any other reason for wanting this other than "just because?"

Can you deny that the kurzick skills are nicer looking?

I kind of agree. The Kurzick skills imo, are much better looking.

Yes I can. In my opinion the Luxon skill icons from Save Yourselves!, Selfless Spirit, Shadow Sanctuary, Signet of Corruption and Spear of Fury look better.

As Katsumi said, it's pure opinion based and that's just not enough.

Seems like a waste of time when Halloween is coming up and HB being removed and SF dominating farming.

Imo, Kurz are supposed to look better than Lux, on account of them being into music and art and stuff, and lux being pirates in essence.

People's oppinion about these skill icons are subjective. I mean, if you don't like version A, you can still get version B. For example, i'm luxon, and i'm using the luxon version of these skills on all of my characters, except on my ritualist. Summon Spirits (luxon) kind of looks like a ... well, sperm to me. I don't want to be pervy or anything, but combined with Vampirism my ritualist is a sperm bank. So, i got a quick invite to a kurzick guild where i could get the kurzick version of Summon Spirits. I also have a high rank in kurzick title track, so the effect difference is too low to talk about...

Waste of time imo.

Plus I think you lack taste, the Luxon icons are so much better than Kurzick. Bad enough we need to see the Kurzick npcs in the game... I don't want to see them on the skills too...such ugly people.

lol, u want to eliminate an entire set of skill icons because u don't like the way they look? should we have u go through all the icons in the game and have u decide which other ones need to be replaced too just because u don't like em? pure QQ thread. no one cares. it's merely ur opinion.

You can use texmod to extract both textures and just replace the Luxon one with the Kurzick ones :P

Sorry m8 but as stated previously changes to the game on opinion is just not going to happen. Lets think about the few actual changes that may have been made to the game because of threads on this site. Now think of the huge amount of threads posted throughout the years. So after all that how much chance do you think this thread has of making that change? How much chance of even coming to the notice of Anet workers? lol whats the answer in your head?
Oh and by the way ive always liked the raw look of the Luxon skills, it suits the pirate ethos i think.

Some Luxon icons are better. They are more descriptive.

Kurzcik skills just look more smooth and well-finished.

I fail to see how this will improve the game. All it will do is cause confusion for people who have kurzick and luxon versions of skills but not max ranks in both.

Tbh, I hate people like you who seek to remove astecitcs from the game because they don't like the way they look. It dosen't matter that the lux skills look like someone was having fun with a crayon; anet wanted the design in the game. Should we change blessed signet's icon because people think it looks inapropriate? No. I have yet to hear how a fugly skill icon, tonic, or weapon skin has created a large amount of unrest from the playerbase so Anet won't care. And by unrest I mean like when Anet changed HA to 6v6.

Luxon=More battle hardened
Kurzick=More VooDoo/jungle looking

wich i do say goes with the area's none the less?

Honestly who gives a crap what ur skills look like.

i think SNiper support looks crap, but i dont make a thread QQ to have it changed, i simply USE it if i feel its neccesary...wich i dont...

i have both sets of skills on all 3 of my main characters(main/legendary survivor/Legendary Defender of Ascalon) and since there isnt much of a change between max versions and non maxed versions..im guessing it wouldnt hurt to change to the "cooler" looking ones now would it?

plus as some1 said, SF sins are still replacing tanks/over abused in farming and stuff like this is mentioned LMFAO, honestly

Here's and edited post of what your really saying:

I know the luxons and kurzicks are warring factions, but the luxons are so low grade compared to the kurzicks, and, most of the other factions in gw.

My proposition is have them use a universal faction, or at least edit the luxon (to be as good as kurzick) or the kurzick (to be as bad as luxon)


To show but 3, where the luxons looks grainy and an after-thought.

----------------

Heh, but enough of that.

The skill icons are different because they depict fighters of each faction. The Kurzicks are smooth, good, and very handsome where the Luxons are bad and grainy.

I like the Kurzick skills more, but the idea of removing the Luxon ones just because they look worse is stupid. You shouldn't be promoting the removal of harmless content.

Love reading some of the posts talking about how one faction is better than the other. I thought that wasn't allowed? Ya well everyone disagrees with the OP so we don't need to hear about what you think is the better faction.
